The volume develops the concepts of the self and its reflexive
nature as they are linked to modern thought from Hegel to Luhmann.
The moderns are reflexive in a double sense: they create themselves
by self-reflexivity and make their world - society - in their own
image. That the social world is reflexive means that it is made up
of non-subjective (or supra-subjective) communication. The volume's
contributors analyze this double reflexivity, of the self and
society, from an interdisciplinary perspective, focusing both on
individual and social narratives. This broad, interdisciplinary
approach is a distinctive mark of the entire project. The volume
will be structured around the following axes: Self-making and
reflexivity - theoretical topics; Social self and the modern world;
Literature - self and narrativity; Creative Self - text and fine
art. Among the contributors are some of the most renowned
specialists in their respective fields, including J. F. Kervegan,
B. Zabel, P. Stekeler-Weithofer, I. James, L. Kvasz, H. Ikaheimo
and others.
